Malkin: “X-Rays Show No Fracture”
The Penguins can breathe a collective sigh of relief. They dodged one bullet when Sidney Crosby was not injured in an awkward fall with the Lightning’s Steve Downie and might have dodged another with Evgeni Malkin.

The Penguins made a couple signings during the morning hours of July 1, 2008. One thrilled the masses, while the other was greeted with mocks and jeers.
Through the two games this season, Bill Guerin has had the hot hand against the Lightning. The veteran forward has scored a goal in both games. Sidney Crosby has picked up two assists, while Sergei Gonchar has picked a goal and an assist.
The irritation that they are filled with today stems from the fact that they have gone 168:28 without scoring a goal against the Devils.
Though it is a gloomy morning here in Pittsburgh, with flood warnings around every corner, it is FRIDAY!
The Penguins travel to the RBC Center in Raleigh, South Carolina to face off against the team that they knocked off in the Eastern Conference Finals last season.
Grab your coffee, danish, bacon and eggs, Red Bull, defibrillator or whatever it is that you use as an eye opener in the morning and settle in for your morning links!
There is a lot going on with the Penguins this time of year. We have players jockeying for position on the depth chart, injury updates, interesting tidbits etc.
I had a chance to catch up with Alexei Ponikarovsky post game. I got the low down on his conditioning after not playing for three weeks and his injury that occurred this afternoon.
The two two teams just faced off and we are about a minute into the game.
Marc Andre Fleury is in the nets for the Penguins, while Tim Thomas is in for the B’s. Former Penguin Dany Sabourin is serving as the back-up for Thomas. Could he get into this game?
